ACC Coaches Talk Anonymously About Conference Foes for 2018

Link

Athlon does this every year. For the most part positive notes for the Hokies.

"Maybe it's just me, but I think Justin Fuente did the best coaching job in our league last year. They won nine games without a consistent run game. And his teams are all about dictating tempo with that run game. They want to impose their will on you. If you're averaging less than four yards a carry, there's no way you should be winning nine games."

"QB Josh Jackson was really good last year as a freshman. Ran that offense really well. But he definitely wore down in November. That's a direct result from a lack of a running game and him carrying the ball so many times in those third and short situations when the running backs weren't getting it done. They have to find an answer there, because when Jackson is healthy and playing well, they're really hard to beat."

"I'd love to have Bud Foster as my defensive coordinator. And I'm sure about 80 percent of the coaches in FBS would say the same thing. They're going to do two things on defense: They're going to get after you to force quicker decisions, and they're going to challenge you on the outside. Bud puts those corners out there and tells them go make plays."

"They're just as dangerous in the kicking game under Justin as they were with Frank Beamer. A majority of that is coaching and attention to detail, and then there's the feel of when to do it. That can't be overlooked. Justin definitely has that. That fake punt in the ACC Championship Game two years ago was a thing of beauty."
